BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 04/07/2019

Tom seizes an opportunity and Justin feels side-lined.

Justin’s feeling abandoned by Lilian. She spurned his trip to Siena and now she’s spending another evening at The Bull covering the pub quiz for Jim.
Justin arrives at The Bull and joins Pat and Tony’s quiz team; it’s the only way he can spend time with Lilian. Justin keeps heckling her, so Lilian deducts points from their team. After the quiz, Lilian admits the quiz was the most fun she’s had in ages. She promises to spend more time with Justin if he stops moaning about how little he sees her. She’s also decided she’d like a party for her birthday, in the Flood Bar at The Bull, but none of her family will be invited.
Tom is frosty with Pat, Tony and Johnny and rejects their invitation to join their pub quiz team. He’s still not forgiven his parents for suggesting the post-nup. That evening, he tells Natasha that he’s trying to rationalise the idea of a post-nup. Natasha has a gift for him: her grandfather’s signet ring. She wants to prove to him that she’s not going anywhere. After the quiz, they arrive at The Bull to tell Pat and Tony that Tom’s agreed to signing the post-nup.  When they’re alone, Natasha asks when they’ll  tell the family they’ve decided to put in a proposal for Peggy’s Conservation Trust. Tom thinks there’s no rush, they should take it one step at a time.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
